Black Friday is the only time I subscribe to this service. It is very very pricey otherwise.

I got my introductory year from steam for £15 or something silly. Just need to top up until BF and get the year again.

I really wish I could drive a real GT3 car (or lmp3/2) so I could know which driving model is more realistic between iracing and LMU.

Jimmy has done a video on this recently with his IRL car that's in iracing.

Yea I think I saw a bit of that. I've seen a few of these, James Baldwin's seem pretty good from what I remember

I saw a formula ford driver who said he prepared for his first time at Donington through iRacing, and he said it was literally exactly the same - the car and the track were exactly as presented. But I'm sure I've seen opposing takes on that matter so IDK.

Max being a big sim racer / iRacing member should go some way to building confidence in that accuracy of the platform.

Stop worrying about which one is more realistic. They both have positives and flaws but both are realistic enough at this point to have a good and authentic feeling time.

That said, there is a reason there is a never-ending list of drivers from F1, F2, F3, IMSA, WEC, NASCAR, Indycar etc on iRacing and not LMU.

That reason being the physics are more than good enough and the platform/service is multiple levels above everything else.
